Symptom
When trying to create a record for a custom MDF object, the system is throwing the following error: ???Saving of 1 [MDF Object] throwed a Exception???
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors HXM Suite
Reproducing the Issue
- Access Manage Data;
- In the Create New dropdown, select the custom MDF object;
- Insert the data and try to save;
- Receive the error.
Cause
The external code of the custom MDF object or any of its child objects is set as a non-unique data type.
Resolution
The external code needs to be set as a type which will grant the uniqueness of each record of that object.
If you select, for example, Picklist as the data type, there will be a limitation in the number of records that can be created, because it will not be possible to have two records with the same picklist value selected as the external code.
